How do you adjust the droop on an EB48.4? The droop screw heads face down towards the tab and I mean there's no way to get a hex wrench in there to turn that little sucker. Advice?

Thanks! Now I gotta remove front and rear diff cases to replace these. How did everybody adjust droop before these before these came out?
Did you get your EB48.4 used? I thought Tekno used the same 1238 droop screws since... forever. Well, since the EB48.3/SCT410.3 anyway.

I recall others mixing up the button head screws in their builds with earlier versions of the kits, chances are the droop screws with the 2.0 hex shanks may be installed somewhere else in the bulkhead, just need to start pulling button head screws until you locate them, ha!

So, after further inspection, yep I found the missing droop screws: one in the front bulkhead and one in the left steering post. Removed the pill blocks front and back one at a time (they were actually only missing on the left side of the chassis) and carefully slid the lower arms just enough to clear the tabs and presto! swappie swappie! So now I have 8 new one's coming. Now I have spares! Thanks for all the replies and heads up!
